George Washington wanted Obamacare, Pelosi says [VIDEO]

Democratic leader Rep. Nancy Pelosi emerged into the sunlight April 1 to applaud a rush of sign-ups for Obamacare, and immediately described it as the long-sought goal of Gen. George Washington and the nation’s Founding Fathers in 1787.

“It is really so heart warming for those of us who worked so hard [to make sure] many more people in our country would have access to healthcare,” she told reporters at the stakeout position just outside the West Wing portico.

“There are those critics, bumps in the road, but they’ve only been turbulence. They have not been an obstacle to the American people having healthier life that our that our founders wanted for them,” she said.

Those founders wanted “life — a healthier life — liberty and the freedom to pursue their happiness, not [be] job-locked, but having benefits that having health-care policies that are portable, they could be self-employed, be a photographer — they could start their own business, they could change jobs, they could reach their aspirations,” she declared.

“And isn’t that a wonderful thing for a society and for an economy?” she added.

In contrast, the GOP’s House leader, Speaker John Boehner, called for the law’s repeal.

“The president’s health care law continues to wreak havoc on American families, small businesses and our economy, and as I’ve said many times, the problem was never just about the website – it’s the whole law,” he said in a March 31 statement.

“Millions of Americans are seeing their premiums rise, not the lower prices the president promised. Many small businesses are afraid to hire new workers, instead cutting hours and dropping health coverage for existing employees.

Pelosi was last seen chasing imaginary butterflie through the field wearing a black plastic bag and yellow boots while jumping up and down laughing.

And all this money has not produced any health service for anyone, not even a bandaid. The spending is just beginning, as are the rationing and the long waits. The bureaucracy will continue to grow and be entrenched so that it can’t be dislodged. It’s depressing.

It is the kind of stupid that should hurt, like unemployment benefits and welfare being an economic boost

there are too many of us, and a side-by-side/underground/blacknarket/alternative system is inevitable.
It won’t be the country we want but we can make it work for us. And we’ll have some good jokes.

“And we’ll have some good jokes.”

Probably dark humor as in the old Soviet Union. *sigh*
